## Payment link details <a href="#payment-link-details" id="payment-link-details"></a>

Click on any transaction and a sidebar menu appears. This menu provides a report on the transaction and is divided into three tabs: **Payment Link**, **Customer** and **Actions.**&#x20;

Each tab enables you to access different information on the transaction:

* Click on the **Payment Link** tab for information on the history of the transaction and details on the payment link.
  * If the URL link is still active, then it will be displayed in the **Link URL** section. This section appears under this title only if the link is still active. You can copy the link by clicking the **Copy link** button.
  * If the Link URL is expired, then it will be displayed with a strikethrough line in the **Link URL Expired** section. You can re-enable an expired link by clicking the **Re-enable link** button and setting a new availability time for your payment link (days/hours/minutes).
  * If the status of a transaction is paid, then the transaction ID and the *View Transaction Details* buttons are also displayed. If you click on the **View Transaction Details** button, you will be redirected to the *Transaction Details* sidebar menu in the *Orders / Transactions Reports* page for a more detailed report on the transaction. For more information, see the [Orders / Transactions Reports](/verifone-central-getting-started/verifone-central/commerce/reporting/orders-transactions-reports.md) documentation page.
  * If a transaction has been attempted and not paid, the transaction ID details and the **View Transaction Details** buttons are also displayed.
